Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hold the station that needs Notice her behind. You're listening
to just the Word of God with Reverend Sylvester on
case AA. Here is Reverend Sylvester.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Father.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
In the name of Jesus, we thank you for another
day that you bless us. This is a blessed day
that you have made despite everything we've seen and heard.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
We thank you. Now.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Lord, we know that as your word go out, that
it will not return under uvoid, but it shall accomplish
that for which is said in the name of the Father,
the Son, and the Holy Spirit and Jesus' name. Amen,
go with me, Go with me to mark chapter four.
Mark chapter four. We're going to begin at verse forty one.
(00:55):
Actually will begin at verse thirty five. On the same day,
when evening had come, he said to them, let us
cross over to the other side. Now, when they had
left the multitude, they took him along in the boat
(01:15):
at as he was, and a little boat were also
with him. And a great wind storm arose, and the
waves beat into the boat so that it was already feeled.
But he was in the sturm asleep on a pillow,
(01:37):
and they are waking him, saying to him, teacher, do
you care that we are perishing.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Do you care that we are perishing?
Speaker 3 (01:53):
Maybe the disciples had not read John three point sixteen.
The Bible said, for God so loved the world that
he sent his only begotten son, that whosoever believe in
him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Sometimes we questioned one another's love.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
We questioned one another's concern for us. We forget about
the sacrifice and the effort that that person has put
forward for you through your life. Children forget about their
mothers and fathers and what they've suffered and gone through.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Some children have never heard the story or.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
The pain that they parents went through just to survive,
just to make ends meet for them.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
For his disciples are asks him this question.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
It was very, very not understanding, because the disciples knew
that Jesus had been walking the earth, he had been
protecting them, he had demonstrated miracles before their eyes, and
that he was doing everything necessary to.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Keep them strong.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Now that he had to have some sleep just showed
that he came in human form. It showed that he
was a man just like me and others. It showed
that he.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Was one hundred percent humans.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
He was not a ghost or mysterious to anyone.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
He was flesh and blood.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
God sent his only son into the world to deliver
humanity from all that the devil has to bring.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Good versus evil. We know that.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
God is good in every sense of the word. But
we also know that God created everything. We understand that
the concern that we may see and the concern that
we feel, sometime it seems like no one cares about you.
God sent his only sign into the world that the
(04:08):
world may be saved through him.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
It's one thing about it.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
When you stop trying to save yourself, God will save you.
When you stop trying to be holier than thou, God will.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Make you holy.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
When you stop trying to be like, be better than
someone else, God will make you one with him. We
spent a lot of times and the disciples was dealing
with their emotions and with their fear. They were dealing
with the idea that we could drown.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Here in the wind.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
This also makes you wonder if the disciples could swim
and such in a case like this, because a lot
of strong swimmers will tell you how they know how
to tread through the water.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Long term swimmers and they will tell you.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Navy men will tell you they know how to tread
through a storm through certain types of water when they're
in that water, whether they have on their diving suit
or not, because a lot of times when the divers
come up the water is the current of the water
is still pulling a different direction, and they have to
know how to keep theirselves afloat in order to get
(05:20):
back to the ship. So the question is could the
disciples swim. It didn't matter if they could swim or not.
It sounds like they were still on milk. It sounded
like the worst of the scripture, that they had not
grown to full maturity of the word of God or
(05:40):
the trust of God.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
It appears that they were not able.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
To pray themselves and come back to battle. It's the
same thing when Jesus had They came and told Jesus
that your disciples came and prayed for this man, but
they could not cast out the demon. They came and
got Jesus, and Jesus spoke and the demon left. Now
(06:06):
you have to understand one thing he has told us
that his word, if you go back to Genesis, he
spoke everything into existence. God did not walk off his throne,
end that he just spoke, and it was made.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
He spoke the world into existence. He spoke everything. You see.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
One thing you don't understand is that you have power
in the word of God. When you take the word
of God and apply the word of God and use
the word as the authority of God, then the word
of God will demonstrate what the Word of God has
the power and the ability to do.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
But if you're waiting on someone else to.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Apply the word to your mountain. First of all, you
got to have faith, Jesus said in the other scripture
to the man, on the petition of your faith be healed.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
You.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
See, it's one thing about your faith and the Word.
Your faith and the Word has to work together. See,
it's no two ways of out it. You've got to
have faith in order to accomplish what you want to do.
Let's go to verse thirty nine. And then he arose
and rebuked the winds and said to the sea, peace,
(07:22):
be still.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Peace.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
Now, look, they said, he can rose and spoke to it.
He didn't get up, holland he didn't get up commanding.
He got up and spoke peace, peace, he said. And
when his words went out, it obeyed his word. It
(07:46):
obeyed his word. The sea obeyed exactly what he said.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Peace.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
You must apply the word of God with faith. Jesus
has had no doubt when he spoke that the sea
was not going to come to peace. He didn't say,
I wonder, Okay, well, I'm gonna try and do it
this way.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
I'm gonna try this or that. No. When he told
Moses to hit the rock and water would.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
Come out, Moses hit the rock and water came out.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Come on.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Now, Jesus has spoken to you through his word, through
the Bible, through the scriptures of his word.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
This is the.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Word of God that you must apply to your circumstances
and your situation. When Jesus hears his word out of
your mouth, he moves directly and performs his word.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
The Bible say he watches over his word to perform it.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
The word of God is your strength. The word of
God is your support. The word of God is your defense.
The word of God is your joy. The word of
God is your life. Take the word of God and
apply it to any circumstances of situations. Just like he
stood up and said peace, he's saying the same thing
(09:15):
in your situation.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Peace, Peace, Peace. I speak unto you today.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
If there wasn't so much chaos in the world, peace
would be in peace.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
It's what we need.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Chaos is nothing but a distraction to keep you from
seeing the reality of the situation. Create chaos, and it
keeps you thrown off and confused to the point that
you can't.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
Stop and see what's just going on.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
There's so many things that they put in front of
your face, like they was talking, when certain things are happening,
you can't see what's going on. Every time an incident
and take place in the street or in the neighborhood,
everybody run outside to see what's going on, but nobody's
watching their front door. While they out there looking to
(10:09):
see what's going on, somebody slipped in their house and
took something. You see, because the chaos got you caught
up in another direction. Somebody else's stress has become your stress.
And I told you before, you can't let somebody else's
stress become your stress. Now, Jesus is the only one
(10:30):
that can handle your stress. Jesus handled the disciples stress.
You're not Jesus, nor am I. But the Jesus was sleep.
The Bible said he was resting man. Jesus was like me.
He went on to sleep, and to sleep through anything,
because he had faith. He believed that when he went
to sleep, that his father was watching over him, and
(10:52):
that the host of Heaven was standing beside him.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
He had nothing to worry about. The devil wasn't gonna
slip upon him. But his disciples was fidgety and nervous
and caring on. And when the water rose and the storm.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Came, they went to Holland and they brought they stress
to Jesus. Now, how many of y'all are trying to
bury your own cross instead of letting Jesus bear the cross.
You're trying to solve the problem and you don't even
know how to go about it. You think you got
an answer or solution to it, and you have no
(11:29):
concept as to what to do. I want you to
know that Jesus cares. I want you to know you
can wake him up and go get to Jesus. Well,
he's not sleep, but you can go to him like
the disciples did. But you got to come to Jesus
with faith. You got to come believing that when you
present it to him that He's going to answer.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Prayer.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
Hallelujah, Globe. I have no doubt that He answers prayer.
It's been proven to me time and time again. I'm
sitting here today in this cheer because of prayer, Hallelujah,
because of faith.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
You see.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
I want you to know that your faith and your
words must work together. You must stand on your word
of God. You must find you some word in here
that inspires your spirit and causes you to grab a
hope to Jesus, and don't let go, no matter what
(12:30):
it looked like. I don't care how you feel. I
don't care what was said. I don't care what they
told you. I don't care what they're doing. You hold
to your faith, and you hold on to God's unchanging
hand through the midst of the storm, through the bumps
and the knox be like his disciples. They knew couldn't
(12:51):
nobody do but Jesus. They knew, couldn't nobody stop the
sea from taking their lives. But Jesus, you know, can't
nobody do you like Jesus, you know, can't nobody fix
this situation, but Jesus. They knew only Jesus could do it.
If they didn't know, they do now because they had
(13:12):
to wake him up, and they believe that he was going.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
To save their lives.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
When they woke him up, they believed that he was
going to do it. Do you believe that God's gonna
do it? Do you believe that God is still the answer?
Do you believe that he sits high and look low?
Do you believe that He's concerned about your situation and
your circumstances. If you have faith in God as big
(13:42):
as a mustard seed, speak to your mountain, and it's
got to be moved a lot of times, the mountain
is within us. The problem is on us. You see
what I'm saying. Jesus said, let's go on here a
little father, Thank God, wonderful. He said, peace be still,
(14:02):
and the wind cease, and that was a great come.
But he said to them, why are you so fearful?
How is it that you have no faith? And they
feared exceedingly and said to one another, who can this be?
Speaker 2 (14:18):
That?
Speaker 3 (14:18):
Even the wind said, and the wind and the sea
obey him. Now, wait a minute, wait a minute, I
gotta go back here, because they said, who can this be? Well,
see they were still a little weak. They didn't even
realize who he was. They didn't know who he was
(14:41):
they were within themselves questioning who could this be?
Speaker 2 (14:47):
As I said earlier, they had not read John three
point sixteen. But God had sent his only begotten son
into the world. They had not read.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
Well, God had sent his son into the world that
the world thre he.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Might be saved. Now here's the situation. Who could this be? Now?
They've been with him all that time, and they still questioning.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
You've been in saved, you've been going to church, and
you still questioning.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
Can he do it? Now? I don't see how. Now
let's go to March chapter eleven and verses twenty through
twenty four.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
Now in the morning, as they passed by, they saw
the fig tree dried.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Up from the roof, and Peter remembered.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
And said to him, rather, I look the fig tree
which you curse, has withered away. So Jesus asked and
said to them have faith in God. For surely I
say to you, whoever say to this mountain be removed
and be cast into the sea, and does not doubt
(15:55):
doubt in his heart, but believe that these things he's
saved will be done, He will have whatever he says. Therefore,
I say to you, whatever thing you ask, when you pray, believe,
you receive them, and you will have them.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
Oh, now if you don't doubt God. Some folks say, yeah,
I believe, and they ask God. And then they got
some sarcastic to say, you done already. Throw your faith
off that little silly sarcastic words.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
You lose this.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
It CAUs your blessing to be delayed. It caused your
deliverance to be delayed. See, because most of the time
we need deliverance from the inside out. This ain't buy
no money. This is about your spirit. This ain't about
your bank account. This is about your attitude and your
disposition toord God. Holly Loujah, chlovery be the God. We
(16:54):
always run into the throne of grace. God, give me
a million dollars. God, give me a new lamp, give
me a new car. Listen, let me tell you something,
he says. Seeky first the Kingdom of God and all
of his righteousness, and all.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Things shall be added under you. Seek the will and
the way.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Of God, and then everything else will be added. We
spend more time looking at God for material things than
we do for the spiritual things. He said, if you
seek me, you'll find me. I want to know him
like Paul. I want to know God and the power
of his suffering. I want the more of the spirit
(17:33):
of God to live and come alive in me. I
want to be able to walk in His spirit and
be obedient to His word. More than I desire anything else.
You got to look at it. You can't eat but
one at a time. And so many people want to
just have so much to make you feel that you
(17:55):
are on a mountain in your mind. But I want
a spiritual mountain in my spirit. I don't need a
notaural mountain. I need a spiritual mountain. Eat another old
shot down. Lord, Move the devil out of my spirit,
out of my heart, and out of my mind, and
out of my soul. Moved the devil's thoughts away from me.
(18:18):
My God, wan enough for safety.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
Create a clean heart in me and the right spirit. See,
we need a right spirit.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
So many of us are running around with a wrong
spirit because we copy in someone else instead of trying
to get.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
The real spirit of the Holy Cold except one neft
for safelory, God, my.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
God, I want the real spirit of God. You can
have all that stuff and still be empty. You got
everything in the house you think you can eat for
Thanksgiving and you're still hungry. You're hongry for the spirit
of God. You're hongry for another touch from God. I
don't know if you ever got hungry in your spirit
of my God. One not for sayd There's nothing can
(19:03):
satisfy that homegrad like cheese. Nothing can heal that desire
like cheese. Nothing can wash away my sins, nothing but
the blood of Jesus. We need to be washed again.
We need to go back and come again. Hollylujah, Glory
to God. We need another touch from Jesus. But I
(19:23):
like the other part of the verse. If you move
on down here with me, now he done say it.
If you pray, huh, if you believe. But then he
goes on to say, if necessary of forgiveness.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
And whatever you stand praying.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
If you have anything and this is verse twenty five,
mark drop to eleven. If you have anything against anyone,
forgive him. That your father in heaven may also forgive
your trust passes. But if you do not forgive, neither
will your Father in Heaven.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Forgive your trust.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
Ain't no need of you talking about you praying an
honest prayer, and you got mess in your heart against
somebody else. You running around hating somebody. Won't the vicker
want to fight with them? You ain't gonna get nothing
for the first thing about it. Once he can wash
us in our heart and sin has been removed, then
we have a right to the go and ask him
(20:23):
for something. But when you got animosity in your heart
and you don't like this one, and you don't care
for that one, and you want to straighten out folks
instead of living for Jesus, See, you're hindering.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
Your own blessing.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
Without a clean heart, You're not gonna get nothing from Jesus.
You've been crying, warfaring, caring on Lord, heal my body,
heal my mind. But you have not forgiven your brother
or your sister. You have not forgiven them. So how
can God forgive your sins? And when he healed the paraplegis,
he said, go your way and sin no more. See
(20:57):
Jesus forgave his sin, then he healed his body. He's
got your sins. Our sins need to be forgiving in
order for us God to give us what we want
or what we need. Sure, God has no respect to favor,
but God does favors for you.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
I believe that he smiles on you.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
He wants you happy, and I believe he said he's
satisfy your mouth with good things so that your youth
is renewed, as come on now. And so the bottom
line is, don't be getting up over folk. And you
got a bad feeling for somebody that you're sitting right
beside of.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Somebody. You don't like the way that they say things
ought to go.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
You don't like the order that they have, But yet
you getting that praying buying in the devil. But you're
trying to bind them because you don't like the way
they doing things.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
But Jesus said, you must forkid.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
Those who trespass against you, forgive them who persecute and
abuse you. So you feel now if you feel they're
doing that, that okay. Then you know for yourself what
is transpiring in your life. But it cannot hinder your prayer.
When it hinders you reaching Jesus through prayer, then that
(22:27):
is the problem with you. The problem is not in God,
it's in us. The problem is not God, it's us.
The problem was not Jesus sleep And the problem was
that the sea rose up and the decit was knowing
that they were not one hundred percent in their heart,
(22:47):
and that they couldn't swim. This is an understanding I'm getting.
They couldn't swim even though they were fishermen. When that
wind in that storm rose up. They got Jesus, Lord, Master,
the Master. Do you care if we perish? Yes, he cares.
But the trick to all of this is forgiving your
(23:07):
brother or your sister. Forgive them for whatever it is.
You got folks running around with animosity and folks hard
because you started talking to sister so and so so
and I was dating sisters so and so and so
back fifteen years ago. You jealous See Bible say, jealousy
is as cruel as the.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
Girl that the's a song.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
They may work on me, Jesus, work in my mind,
work in my soul, work and my spirit work on me.
See instead of you trying to pray the mountain down
the mountain, and that problem is on the inside of you, sin, sin, weakness, liars, agitators, anger.
(23:53):
God need to work all that out of us before
he can work on anything else.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Some folks in the hospital because they so angry.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
I get you can get sick when you that bitter
and that angry and that math you can't function. A
lot of folks don't know that. But you can hear
the sore. I've been like that. You can hit a
certain knob in my You used to could hear a
certain part in my life, and I would lose everything
I had because the sore.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
The wound had not healed.
Speaker 3 (24:24):
Reason why the wound that that I suffered, what the
people said or done didn't heal because I didn't forgive them.
And I'm struggling and couldn't get nothing from God until
I came to the place to understand that forgiveness is
a healing within its equal Shota city shot good an
(24:47):
e can normal sea now shot no sire. Forgive in
order to receive the blessing, the internal blessing of God.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
Stop looking for natural blessing. Look for the.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
Spiritual outpouring of His spirit in you. We cannot do
anything unless we do as Jesus. Jesus told his father
when he was at the cross. Forgive them, for they
know not what they were doing when they cared him
to the cross, when they lied on him and spit
on him. Hollylujah, one doll of o see glory. When
(25:22):
they gambled his clothes off after he had gone to
his father. The eveno shot allah see nothing, no Shiah,
Jesus said, forgive them, for they know not what they're doing.
Forgiving a person don't mean you got to pull them
back in your bosom and you gotta be all over them.
You don't even have to talk to them about it.
(25:44):
All you have to do is forgive them in your
heart and in your spirit. And you don't have to
say nothing because you'll be trying to make yourself look good.
They'll say something that will cause you not to be
able to forgive them. And for you know it, you
back in the same boat that you was in in
th Shota. None of those shot. God wants to work
(26:04):
on your heart in your mind, and it ain't got
nothing to do with them. God may have used them
to bring you to a place of forgiveness to teach
you forgiveness.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
You don't know.
Speaker 3 (26:14):
Ecodo shun, Thank you Jesus, but forgive them. Forgive so
that you can be spiritually delivered in shining own sire.
I ain't got to lay hands on you for you
to get that hallylujah. Why not for say it? You
see folk get hands laid on and they slain in
(26:35):
the spirit. That's because God is taking something out of
them in the spirit. A lot of times people want
to demonstrate deements coming out and what God will slay
you in the spirit and command and take that devil
out of you, and no one never hear it. Eco
shot shot. But you will know the change in yourself.
You will know the miracle that God has before him
(26:55):
in your life. And then God would demonstrate what He's
done in you because he will get the glory out
of your life. Say glory to God. Ask God to
get the glory out of your life, out of you completely.
Ask God to give you the spirit of forgiveness, evil
shining old Sea. Because carrying around, carrying around like that,
you're hurting yourself. You're hindering your blessing. You're hindering receiving
(27:20):
what Christ has for you. Seek ye first the Kingdom
of God and all of His righteousness, and all things
shall be added none than you. I'd rather have Jesus
than silver, gold and riches. I'm told I'd rather have
Jesus than have multimillion dollars in the bank today. It
wouldn't do me any good without Jesus, Hallelujah, one method Savior,
(27:43):
every multi bigger there I've heard. The first thing out
of their mouth is they thank God. He calling aluvo
civiy Deil shining down a little Siah.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
God has got to be able to trust us.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
God has got to know that whatever He do for us,
we're not gonna turn our back on him.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
We're not gonna go back to.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
Ben, the rude and unsafe person that we were. God
gives you things to keep you. He doesn't want to
lose you. He sent his son that none should pa.
